Great story!

I predict that loosely organized e-posses will form, 
internet associations of people who will work together 
to bag criminals, one little hobby project at a time.  The 
cops will not take on little under-$5k ripoffs like this 
one, but I will.  If someone gets ripped off on ebay
for instance, by someone within 100 km from here,
I would cheerfully take my digital camera and snap
a few photos, post them to wherever.  I wouldn't do
the baseball bat routine, that isn't my specialty.
But I would participate in an organized effort,
all by completely non-violent means, through internet
and information handling skills, to make the 
reprehensible perp regret ever having been born.
